Bad wind buffeting on highway while following trucks or driving in even slight wind. Must constantly correct vehicle to stay in lane.
Advice to buyer:
Drive it on the highway on a windy day. Check rear seat ingress/egress. Check mileage. Check resale.
Detailed review:
I was especially impressed with the quietness of the Ranier.
I had driven two other Raniers and was less than impressed. The one with the V-8 idled so bad the vehicle shook. The second Ranier was OK. I had just about given up on the Ranier when I came back and test drove the vehicle I bought. It was all that I had hoped for.
